Top technical analyst andBarron's Onlinecolumnist Kahn demystifies technical analysis. While many investors view technical analysis as a mystical "tea-leaf reading" process, "this could not be further from the truth," says the author, in the second edition of this handy guide to technical analysis. Indeed, Kahn teaches investors how to bring clarity and objectivity to their market decisions by augmenting their fundamental research with the use of technical analysis. Beginning with a general overview of the subject, the author then moves on to the core concepts of chart analysis and the various facets of the investment process. Finally, he covers more advanced topics like candlesticks, cycles and Elliot waves, and also explains common technical terms and jargon and how to identify patterns, listen to the market and "reality check" broker recommendations. Investors will appreciate this straightforward and clear guide to technical analysis. --Kirkus Reports, Vol. 3, Issue 3 (March 31, 2006), Top technical analyst and Barron's Online columnist Kahn demystifies technical analysis.

Synopsis
Technical analysis is a hot topic for investors right now and offers powerful, objective tools for picking stocks and making money--but most explanations of the subject simply confuse investors instead of enlightening them. In this clear, practical book, Barron's columnist Michael Kahn introduces technical analysis in simple English. Kahn explains exactly how technical analysis works, then teaches you how to read charts and translate what they tell you into real buy and sell decisions. The fully updated Second Edition contains many new examples reflecting major market changes since the First Edition: 9/11, equities bear markets, commodities bull markets, changing interest rates, and more. Step by step, Kahn illuminates the basic theory of technical analysis, demystifies its jargon, outlines its core techniques, and shows how to use it to complement (not replace) the reader's current approach to stock selection. He explains trendlines, chart patterns, and corrections; reveals what makes a stock look promising; and helps to assess potential risk and reward., 'Technical Analysis Plain and Simple' seeks to make the analyst understood by the masses. It also attempts to teach the individual investor how to enhance his/her investment performance.

- a***s (12478)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI'm very disappointed with this seller! The sent me a book that had water damage. It wasn't listed correctly. I filed for a return and they took all of the 5 days allotted to approve. I shipped it back and they didn't issue a refund when the book arrived. eBay finally had to get involved and issue the refund. Really terrible customer service...never even heard from the seller. I wouldn't order from this vendor again.
